Had a night out with the guys, decided on seeing it. You all know my feelings on remakes, but I enjoyed it. It's much darker than 2nd, the one most people know. Extremely violent, and it lacks the camp and the humor the was in the other films (ED2 Army), which didn't bother me because they were going for a more straight up horror flick. There are tons of references to the originals strewn throughout, which I liked because it's like horror "Where's Waldo".

My biggest gripe is some of the scenes were shot too dark, and it was hard to see somethings.

If you like the originals, or horror movies in general, I recommend it.

No humor? I laughed my titties off. Old slasher-movie cliches came one right after another, things we've seen a million times before.

The five main characters shed enough blood to give the entire Army of Darkness a transfusion.

Chuck Finley (alias Bruce Campbell, he of the original "Evil Dead" and every other B movie with "Dead" in the title) was one of the producers. "Burn Notice" notwithstanding, he must have been really hard up for new projects.

Oh, I had fun, but I don't think it was the kind of fun that old Brucie and the rest of the producers had in mind, because not once did my skin tingle or the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

We went to the Movie Tavern, where you can drink beer and watch the movie. That was my night out..... and I had fun.

Well you didn't say anything about a movie theater that serves beer, I'd be all over that. Do they have secured parking, wouldn't want to leave that Dart in random spot where a random asshole would fuck it up. Although it might be worth him doing it just so I could catch him.

Criminals in this town used to believe in things...honor, respect."I heard your dog is sick, so bought you this shovel"

The scene with the Jeep and the arm..... just wow. No, it's not scary, you're not going to leave feeling creeped out or disturbed. We saw it with a great last showing crowd, everyone was into it, you could hear the squeamish people during several scenes.

I'm surprised you guys don't have one up there. Full bar, nice tavern style menu, and table service. It is a bit pricey (Shocker!), but I think it's worth it. One guy was eating his pizza during the tongue scene.

Best thing about the Alamo Drafthouse here in KC,(beside the full bar) Zero Tolerence for Cell phones usage during the movies

"Cocaine is a hell of a drug" - Originated from a famous skit in Dave Chappelle's "Chappelle's Show". The skit would portray Rick James, usually high on cocaine, preforming doing crazy and stupid things, such as smacking Charlie Murphy in the face. Rick James would frequently explain away his actions by saying "Cocaine is a hell of a drug".
